What I Do

With influences ranging from Bach to Cage to J. Dilla, I create sound experiences that will move you in places you probably haven't been moved before. It may not always be pretty, but it's guaranteed fresh every time. There are probably a few rules I haven't broken yet. Fortunately, life is long.

Who I Am

I was born and raised in my beloved Toronto and am proud to call Hogtown home. I started playing piano at the age of 5. Compositions quickly followed.

I took a jazz detour in high school, which led to a joint degree in composition and jazz from McGill University, where I studied with Wray Downes, Jeff Johnston, Chris Harman, and Sean Ferguson. I'm now a doctoral student of the University of Toronto, studying composition with Gary Kulesha.

When I'm not studying or composing, I teach piano, listen to hip hop, and hang out with my dog (and doppleganger), Billie.

Have a listen

You know when you go into a museum and see some splotches of paint on a board, paired with some text that describes the thing as "The fullest affirmation of human yearning in the age of nuclear ennui and technological globalistic reckoning"?
